New Hui Photoelectric Technology Department. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

As the CEO of the company, Lou Sheng had always been at the forefront of research and development. His work was very busy, but micro optical tube embedding technology was just too important. It was so important that it directly related to the company’s development.

The improvement of micro optical tube embedding technology marked the entry of optical path embedding technology into the nano era.

In the manufacturing industry now, the manufacturing of electronic chips had already entered the nano era, primarily due to market demands. Where there was demand, there was a market, and where there was a market, investment in research and development followed.

The development of micro optical tube technology had grown alongside anti-gravity technology. Everyone who understood anti-gravity technology and space link technology knew how crucial it was to minimize the size of optical pathways.

The development speed of New Hui Photoelectric was very fast, and it had become one of the top international optoelectronics enterprises.

But it was just one of them.

Now, Lou Sheng was full of fighting spirit. He hoped to lead the company to become the global number one, much like the country’s latest technology. He reinvested a lot of profits into research and development, which led to the current technological improvements.

When he was in the technology department, he was concerned about manufacturing problems and kept asking the technical team, "What kind of improvements need to be made to the lathes if we want to apply this technology to manufacturing?"

"How long might it take for us to truly apply it?"

"What is the total cost of the project up until now? Provide a detailed list."

"Many companies, including those involved with the latest technology, will certainly be interested in such advancements!"

As Lou Sheng was talking, the person who was truly interested arrived.

Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi’s work schedule was very tight. He came in a hurry and only made a phone call after arriving.

Lou Sheng, knowing that Zhao Yi had come, quickly arranged a series of hospitality measures and even went to the entrance of the technology department building to welcome him.

This grand treatment was not just because of Zhao Yi’s reputation but also because he was New Hui Photoelectric’s largest individual shareholder. He controlled ten percent of the company’s shares, several times more than Lou Sheng, the company’s head.

After arriving at the technology department, Zhao Yi exchanged a few pleasantries with Lou Sheng and then got straight to the point, asking about the micro optical tube embedding technology.

Manager Wang Ronghua of the technology department began a serious introduction, "Academician Zhao, we have achieved embedding of the optical tubes by combining nanotechnology with optical routing technology."

"The embedded optical tubes we produce consist of three layers. The outer layer is made of a special fiber plastic structure, the middle layer is a plastic material containing certain metallic elements, but it does not conduct electricity or absorb heat."

"The innermost layer is embedded with a smooth inner membrane."

"The technology for this inner membrane has the highest content. It needs to ensure a smooth optical path and also maintain accuracy within a certain error range."

"The inner diameter of each of our optical tubes has an error within three nanometers."

Wang Ronghua discussed many technical standard issues.

Zhao Yi listened and nodded repeatedly, "This is a significant improvement. Micro optical tube embedding technology aims to measure up to chip technology."

"However, the requirements for micro optical tube embedding are much more complex than those for chips. It’s not possible to achieve a few nanometers, nor is it necessary to do so."

"In the direction of space link technology, there is still high demand for nanometer-level optical pathways. For other directions, the focus is more on developing better materials, such as ensuring the tubes absorb no heat and pursuing more smoothness and smaller errors in the inner diameter."

Zhao Yi discussed the latest technology’s requirements for optical pathways.

For instance, with anti-gravity technology, smaller is not always better. This is because if the light beam generator is too small, it can’t keep up with the power needed. A nanometer-level high-power optical path diameter is equivalent to emitting a laser, and the material of the tube simply can’t contain it.

However, the demands of space link technology are not as high, which allows for the continuous reduction of the optical tube diameter, enabling linking devices to be made smaller and applied in more scenarios.

When Zhao Yi arrived at the technology department, he asked a question, "If we double the inner diameter of the optical tubes, with your current technology, by how much would the overall diameter increase?"

"Calculate it," Lou Sheng instructed Manager Wang Ronghua.

The result came out quickly.

"Doubling the inner diameter would expand the overall size by about one-third!"

Zhao Yi thought carefully and worked out the requirements for anti-gravity technology.

The original anti-gravity system required a diameter of about ten meters. The interior of the anti-gravity system was full of complex optical pathways. Relying on current technology, however, they could significantly reduce the optical pathways, thus greatly reducing the diameter.

"If we improve the large pathways and perform a detailed design, about two meters should be enough, right?"

This result was surprisingly good.

Zhao Yi had always wanted to design a civilian aircraft. He only participated in the design of turbofan engines and fighter jets, with the F-40 being his most perfected design product.

After working on the development of anti-gravity technology, aircraft design seemed unrelated to him, mainly because anti-gravity technology was so massive that it was difficult to apply to civilian aviation.

When anti-gravity technology first appeared, it had a significant impact on the civil aviation industry. The stock prices of many companies in the civil aviation sector suffered greatly, mainly because the development of anti-gravity technology seemed to be a direct challenge to civil aviation.
